* News of a previous evening's fatal (nearly disastrously so) accident have made into the local papers and local new broadcasts. It names the victim as well as her place of employment. The police theory, it seems, is that Mary Blacksmith was driving drunk and lost control of her car, which subsequently exploded. An unnamed witness' story corroborates this theory. A closed-casket funeral service is planned to be held in one week, provided it doesn't need to be postponed as a result of an inconclusive tox-screen. *
